-OF- 



Schuyler County, N. Y. 



EXPLANATIONS 

Directory is arranged as follows : — 

i — Name of individual or firm. 

2 — The figures following the letter r indicate the number of the road on which the 
party resides, and will be found by reference to the map in the back part of this worK. 
Where no road number is given the party is supposed to reside in the village. 

3 — Birth, if given. 

4 — Business or occupation. 

5 — A star (*) placed before a name indicates an advertiser in this work. 

6— Figures placed after the occupation of a farmer indicate the number of acres 
owned or leased. 

7 — Names in CAPITALS are those who have kindly given their patronage to the 
work, and without whose aid its publication would have been impossible. 

The fact that a farmer is not credited with cows or horses should not imply that he 
has none. In some towns we have not (but in exceptional cases) recorded horses or 
cows unless there were more than two. 

K^~ For additional names, changes and corrections, see Errata.

TOWN OF HECTOR. IOJ 



HECTOR. 



HECTOR was formed from Ovid, (Seneca County), March 30, 
1802. As a part of Tompkins County it entered into the for- 
mation of Schuyler. North Hector, Peach Orchard and Bur- 
dett are stations on the Lehigh Valley Railway. Mecklenburg 
is an important village in the eastern part. Other villages are 
shown on the map. The town has more post-offices, probably, 
than any other town in the State. Across this town Gen. Sul- 
livan's army marched against the Indians. See route on map.

MONTOUR. 

TOWN OUTSIDE OF HAVANA. 

MONTOUR, — the youngest of the towns, was formed from 
Catharine, March 3d, i860. A portion was recently annexed 
from Dix. The only village is Havana, the second in impor- 
tance in the county. The Chemung canal connects the village 
with Seneca Lake. The northeastern portion is crossed by the 
Lehigh Valley Railway, but there is, however, no station with- 
in the limits of the town.

WATKINS VILLAGE. 

TOWNS OF DIX AND READING. 

WATKINS, named from Dr. Samuel Watkins, an early 
landholder and settler in the village, it was incorporated as 
"Jefferson," April nth, 1842 ; its name was changed April 8th, 
1852. It is located partly in Reading, but mostly in Dix. It 
is the county seat, a station on the Northern Central Railway, 
and is at the confluence of the Chemung canal with Seneca 
lake, the head of the canal being at Havana. The village is 
connected with towns on Seneca lake by the steamers of the 
Seneca Lake Steam Navigation Co. Watkins Glen, a wonder- 
ful erosion in the soft rocks by a small stream, extends for two 
miles or more west of the village, and attracts many thousand 
tourists to Watkins every year, and is therefore a factor for 
adding wealth to the town. The recent discovery of salt in this 



WATKINS VILLAGE. 297 



vicinity promises continued growth and prosperity to the com- 
mercial interests of the place, which is already the business 
center of the county. Residents of that part of the village lying 
in Reading are designated by (R).

BUSINESS DIRECTORY 

SCHUYLER COUNTY. 



EXPLANATION. 

The towns are alphabetically arranged at the end of the line, under the business 
classifications. Havana and Watkins are in this sense treated as towns. The postoffice 
address of each individual or firm follows after the name, except in cases where the name 
of the postoffice and the township are the same. The classification of farmers is omitted 
in this list, except as they are engaged in grape or berry raising to the extent of two 
acres or over, or are breeders or dealers in blooded live stock. Road numbers signify the 
same as in the general list. 

If representations in this list vary from the general directory, it is in accordance with later infor- 
mation.

THE GREAT HIGHWAY 



HE FOB FASHIONABLE PLEASURE 

THE ONLY ALL-RAIL ROUTE 

TO THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. 

"THE LOVLIEST RIVER RESORT IN THE WORLD." 



The R., W. & O R. R. is leased in perpetuity to the New York Central & Hudson 
River Railroad. The Lessee Company has expended more than one million dollars in 
permanent improvements and betterments, relaying the railway of the Eastern Divi- 
sion with the heaviest steel rails used north of the trunk lines ; renewing and re-ballast- 
ing the road-bed, increasing the number of ties per mile, replacing the bridges with 
heavier new ones of steel and iron, and making various other improvements on the R., 
W. & O. system. Standard locomotives capable of hauling the heaviest passenger 
trains at high speed, have been added to the motive power, and sumptuous new 
coacnes to the passenger equipment. 

Solid Vestibule Trains to and from ttie Tiiousand Islands 

Stopping only at principal cities and making the following very fast time : 
New York 8 hours, Albany 5 hours, Utica 3 hours, Niagara Falls 8% hours. Buf- 
falo 8 hours, Rochester 6% hours, Syracuse 3% hours, connecting with the fast Ex- 
press and Limited trains to and from Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit, Toledo, 
Pittsburg, Cleveland and the West, also with Boston and New England points. 

Thirteen Express trains, week days, and five Express trains, Sundays, run in and 
out of Clayton (Thousand Islands). Fast trains run to and from the West expressly to 
avoid the slow lake trip with its many discomforts, and to enable tourists and pleasure 
seekers to enjoy among the Thousand Islands the time thus gained (from 4 to 12 hours) 
which otherwise would be consumed in an uncertain and uninteresting lake passage. 

Wagner Vestibule Newest Buffet Sleeping 
and Drawing Room Cars 

on all Through Trains. All trains connect at Clayton with Thousand Island Steamboat 
Co. for all places in the Thousand Island region. Connection is also made at Clayton 
with Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Co. steamers for Montreal, Quebec, the River 
Saguenay, etc. , passing all of the Thousand Islands and Rapids of the River St. Law- 
rence by daylight. 

The Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg R. R. is the GREAT TOURIST ROUTE to 
all places on the St. Lawrence River, all Canadian Resorts, the Adirondack Mountains, 
Green Mountains, White Mountains and Sea Coast Resorts. 

Wagner Buffet Sleeping Cars run by this route between Chicago and Portland, 
Maine, passing through the celebrated White Mountain Notch by daylight, and stop- 
ping directly in front of the principal hotels in the White Mountain region.

Publishers Notes. 

J. B. Morris & Son, dry goods dealers of Watkins, publish 
their announcement on page 346. The senior member of 
the firm began business in Burdett as early as 1859, six 
years later he came to Watkins, and in 1886 his growing 
business demanding increasing care and watchfulness he 
took into partnersnip his son Henry J. The conservative 
tendencies of this house have enabled them to steadily gain 
in strength and ability to bring before the purchasing pub- 
lic of Schuyler county the best the market affords in all 
lines in the dry goods trade, carpets, cloakings, etc., and 
being satisfied with small profits they have gained a large 
patronage. Buyers will do well to examine their extensive 
stores in the Opera House block, where they will be wait- 
ed upon by the proprietors or their polite clerks. 

HENRY V. HAAS, furniture dealer and undertaker at Watkins, 
advertises on page 326. It is a pleasure to write of such- 
men as Mr. Haas. The story of his business is the story 
of his life. Beginning thirty-five years ago as errand boy 
in the same building he now occupies he has held every 
position in the business from the errand boy to proprietor. 
Without detail as to the growth of his business, it is suffi- 
cient to say that now he has eight show rooms devoted 
wholly to the sale of furniture and undertaking goods, and 
twelve different rooms filled with reserved stock of all des- 
criptions. His casket rooms contain a display of twenty- 
five cloth cases ready for inspection at any moment. He 
owns two fine hearses, a heavy and a light one. He em- 
ploys four to six hands the entire year. Mr. Haas is a 
graduate of one of the leading schools of embalming, and 
in either branch of his business is thoroughly equipped to 
satisfy his customers. 

Durland, Smith & Co , hardware dealers, Watkins. The 
growth and prosperity of a people is indexed somewhat by 
the character of the business houses. The great store and 
warehouse of the above named firm is the outgrowth of a 
more modest business started in 1856 by J. D. Payne. 
After twelve years of existence and several changes the 
firm became Durland & Smith In 1886 Mr. George S. 
Coon was taken into the business and the firm name 
changed to its present style. The main building is 40x45 
feet in size and four stories high, and basement ; an ad- 
ditional warehouse 20x75 feet is required for the immense 
business conducted by this house — a retail trade not con-

fined by the bounds of the county and a wholesale trade 
that extends even into Pennsylvania. It is unnecessary 
here to enumerate the various branches of their business. 
We refer the reader for that to the firms advertisement 
on page 298. Anything in their several lines, needed for 
erecting and furnishing an elaborate house or business 
building, may be obtained of this firm s and their success 
warrants the assertion that they are able to compete with 
any house in the trade, both as to quality and prices. 

Pellet & Hughey, the enterprising boot and shoe dealers, 
have within a comparatively short period elevated a mod- 
erate business into one of the leading mercantile interests 
of Watkins. Mr. Pellet is known all over Schuyler county 
as an enterprising, pushing business man ; while Mr. 
Hughey, the business manager of the firm, has by close 
attention to the demands of the people kept their stock 
supplied with all grades of goods needed- Nothing in the 
line of footwear being too good or expensive to be supplied 
by this house when occasion requires. Mr. Hughey had 
for eight years been a salesman for Mr. John Budd, whose 
business had attained an annual sum of eight or nine 
thousand dollars. The present firm purchased the stock 
and by their liberal business methods they have so won 
the hearts of the people that their trade has grown in three 
years to the extent that the last year's sales amount to 
twenty- five thousand dollars. This is due largely from 
the fact that the firm carry all the latest styles from the 
best makers, and that they have become wholesalers to a 
consideradle extent. They advertise on page 336. 

T. H. Abbey & Co., dealers in dry goods, carpets, etc., at No. 
103 Franklin street, Watkins, are well known throughout 
Schuyler county. The active business population of this 
county have grown up since the foundation of this house. 
Tyler H. Abbey began the business here about forty-nine 
years ago. The business has been conducted under the 
present firm name for the past eleven years. The store 
occupies spacious quarters in the Abbey block, and in- 
cludes basement, main floor, and a portion of the second 
floor, where all classes of goods peculiar to the trade are 
kept in variety. The stock is replenished frequently by 
purchases in the markets, so that patrons may expect to 
find fashionable goods of the day at this house. Mr. A. 
T. Abbey, the junior partner, is now the active manager 
and buyer. See their advertisement on page 312.

RETROSPECTIVE. 



IN leaving our work, which for several months has brought 
us into pleasant contact with the people of Schuyler county, 
we desire to return sincere thanks to all who have kindly aided 
in obtaining the information this book contains, — especially 
are our thanks due the editors and managers of the county 
papers for their uniform kindness in calling attention to our ef- 
forts, — to Hull Fanton Esq., for official diagram of the route of 
General Sullivan's army across the county in 1779, from which 
we were enabled to locate the route accurately on our map, to 
C. M. and A. C. Woodward. Durland, Smith & Co. and to 
many others, who have spoken so kindly of our efforts of a quarter 
of a century ago, and who now, by their several acts of court- 
esies have aided and smoothed the way, while prosecuting this 
difficult class of book making. 

We have also consulted the various maps of the county, and, 
to some extent, public records, but the labor of securing the 
names, occupations, etc., for the directory, has been by a house 
to house canvass — and while errors and omissions will undoubt- 
edly be found — we feel confident, the citizens of Schuyler 
County will regard the work as valuable, for we have obtained 
the information from the individuals or members of their re- 
spective families in nearly all cases. The road numbers in con- 
nection with the corresponding numbers on the map will en- 
able one to locate, very closely, families in any part of the 
county. 

The margins of pages have been left broad, to enable any 
one to note changes or corrections. 

In conclusion we trust our readers will bear in mind, should 
errors be noted, that " he who expects a perfect work to see, 
expects what ne'er was, is, nor yet shall be." 

The Compiler.
